Zion National Park | Ascending Angel’s Landing

Today, ascend one of Zion’s most storied features, Angel’s Landing. Alternatively, you may opt to hike one of Zion National Park’s tamer trails if you prefer. After an early breakfast, head back into a park and begin your climb up a steep trail that has literally been cut into the face of a vertical cliff. Along the way, it passes by a cool grotto, and then up the switchbacks known as Walters Wiggles. Stop for a photo at Scout’s Lookout, and then proceed on to the final push. Hike along a sandstone fin with 700-foot drops on either side. The trail is plenty wide to feel secure, and hip-high chains are there to hold along the more treacherous parts. Finish by midafternoon and return to Springdale for a late lunch. Take some time to relax, and then enjoy an afternoon excursion to an authentic ghost town, complete with its own cabins, school house and pioneer cemetery.
